That's how I became famous

Chapter 718 The character prototype is Li Xiao

"About the movie?" Fang Bianmian waited quietly, looking around at the buildings on the street, and asked after Li Xiao hung up the phone.

"Well, I plan to let Fatty and the others make a movie by themselves." Li Xiao nodded and smiled.

It is estimated that Fatty and the others must be very happy now, and at the same time feel pressure.

In fact, it wasn't that Li Xiao deliberately played tricks on them. At the beginning, he really wanted to give them the script he had written and the detailed storyboard.

But I soon realized that I decided to quit the circle temporarily, isn't it because of these works in my dream?
It's not that he won't use it anymore, at least he will use it when he comes back after he has experienced a period of precipitation and has a feeling for these works.

Otherwise, if you use the script you wrote, will you still be out of the circle?

Just retreating into the background.

When it comes to quitting the circle, regardless of whether it is temporary or permanent, cut off all connections with the circle.

Also, although Lu Feizhang didn't say it, Li Xiao knew that he definitely wanted to make a movie of his own.

And Li Xiao's shot script is very detailed, even if it was shot by Lu Feizhang, it still belongs to Li Xiao's movie.

Just knowing that Lu Feizhang and others wrote several scripts during this period, Li Xiao had this plan.

"This time I don't care about anything else, let Fatty and the others do their best, and they can shoot whatever they want."

Fang Bianmian listened quietly, nodding his head from time to time in response.

In fact, she is not very interested in these things, but she can also use these things to hear Li Xiao's inner world more clearly.

This time she knew that Li Xiao had really put everything down, not trying to cover up.

Without further ado, the two walked arm in arm on the streets, looking around at the unique street buildings full of history.

In addition to the buildings with a strong historical style, street graffiti is also very common and colorful.

There are also many colorful classic cars parked on the street, which gave Li Xiao the first feeling of being retro.

But it was a bit of a mistake. There are not many Chinese people who come to Havana, the capital of Cuba, to travel, but you can always meet one or two when you walk.

Li Xiao was recognized just by wearing sunglasses, and some foreigners even asked him to confirm their identities.

Fortunately, everyone came out to play. After seeing the surprise of the stars, they asked for autographs and took two photos before leaving.

The mood of both of them is very comfortable.

The local people live a very leisurely life. A table is placed in a shady place, smoking cigars and playing cards, and people who have no place stand by and watch.

There are also many groups of children playing in twos and threes on the street, and from time to time you can see someone playing musical instruments on the street.

The two walked aimlessly as they wished, and soon they came to a street with many bars.

"It's very lively there!" Li Xiao raised his head to indicate a direction.

Fang Bianmian followed and saw a small bar full of people, people of all skin colors were drinking in it, with smiling faces, and a band was performing inside through the transparent glass window.

"Come on, let's go and have a look." Li Xiao took Fang Bianmian's hand and went happily.

Although he doesn't like to drink, he travels just to have fun and experience the local culture. Such a lively bar must be very good.

Holding Fang Bian in his arms, he walked through the crowd and entered the bar.

There were really many people, and the black man over there was smiling brightly, his white teeth almost didn't dazzle Li Xiao's eyes.

There were no empty tables, but there were a few empty stools against the wall, and everyone gathered in the center to enjoy the band.

"Have a Mojito."

Fang Bianmian ordered a cocktail. She had been to this city before. Although she was still young at the time and hadn't tasted the wine here, she knew it was a local specialty.

She introduced: "This is the most famous local cocktail. It is said that people who don't like alcohol can drink it."

As soon as he heard the name of the wine, a song came to Li Xiao's mind immediately.

The song is called "mojito", and it should be about this wine and this country.

Watching the bartender show off his skills, he added lemon and mint leaves, etc., and quickly prepared a glass of wine.

"Come on, take a sip!"

The two walked to the vacant seats on the wall of the bar and sat down. Fang Bianmian looked at Li Xiao expectantly.

"Do you want to read my eyes when I was slightly drunk?" Li Xiao looked at her and smiled.

Not knowing what to say, Fang Bianmian didn't continue to think, and said coquettishly, "Hurry up, have a drink!"

Li Xiao didn't refuse. After smelling it, there was a faint smell of wine, more of a fragrance of lemon and mint.

Frowning, he took a sip, and soon his brows gradually relaxed.

I don't think it's particularly delicious, but it doesn't have an overly unpleasant alcohol taste.

It's a bit sour at the entrance, and then I feel the taste of lemon, mint, and then a little sweet.

"The taste is better than expected, not the taste of the liquor I thought." Li Xiao commented, and took another sip.

After he finished tasting, Fang Bianmian sipped it expectantly. It was sweet and sour, which suited her taste very well.

Watching the performance, Li Xiao found that a glass of cocktail soon bottomed out.

"Do you want to try something else?" Fang Bianmian asked.

Li Xiao joked: "Little wine bug! Then order me a glass of the same one, and you can order something else."

This cocktail wasn't too exciting, didn't affect the vocal cords much, and the taste wasn't too bad. Fang Bianmian finished it before Li Xiao tasted it seriously.

There is one thing to say, the only thing that can make Li Xiao's opponent Bianmian admit defeat is to limit his drinking, and he is not afraid of anything else, usually she is the first to admit defeat!

"Can you drink?" Fang Bianmian looked at him suspiciously.

"It's just a cocktail!" Li Xiao suddenly became dissatisfied. Didn't this belittle me?

"Yes, yes, yes." Fang Bianmian smiled mysteriously.

Soon, two glasses of wine were brought over. The one that Fang Bianmian drank was another famous local cocktail. Seeing how happy she was, it should taste good.

In the corner, drinking wine, listening to singing and noise, in the noisy environment, Li Xiao actually felt quiet for a moment.

He seems to have stepped into the story of "mojito".

In fact, it's not that hanging, he's on top.

Although the taste of this wine is not strong, it tastes sour and sweet, but the alcohol content is not low.

Fang Bianmian giggled and asked him, "Do you know the temperature of mojito?"

Li Xiao was a little dizzy, blinked his eyes, and said disdainfully: "How many can there be?"

"The degree is not sure, but I just asked, it contains at least 30.00% alcohol." Fang Bianmian laughed.

No wonder it felt a little over the top, and the cup was almost over. Li Xiao also smirked.

This kind of slightly drunk state is actually quite good, Li Xiao enjoys being able to stay awake while staggering.

Thinking of this song again for a moment, Li Xiao stared at Fang Bianmian and asked: "Did you order a mojito for your lover to read his eyes when he was slightly drunk?"

It's a bit reversed, Li Xiao was supposed to order some for Fang Bianmian, and then get her drunk. Bah, and then accompany her to enjoy the feeling of being slightly drunk.

Fang Bianmian couldn't understand the inexplicable words again, but he also knew that he was teasing him, and his beautiful eyes flicked around.

She can drink very well, but after drinking, her little face will turn red, and she will smile like a peach blossom.

Li Xiao couldn't hold back, and took a sip.

At this moment, there was an uproar in the bar.

It turned out that a famous local band performed on stage.

The singing should be in Spanish, with a strong local folk flavor.

The two could not understand, but music is not limited to language, the atmosphere of the scene was strong and lively, and they were in a state of being slightly drunk at this time, and they easily swayed their bodies slightly following the rhythm and rhythm of the music.

The two snuggled up to each other and enjoyed a wonderful afternoon.

This feeling is great!

After the band performed, they found some bar guests went to the center to pick up the microphone and sing. Fang Bianmian looked at Li Xiao, "Do you want to go up and try?"

Give it a try, maybe it's almost there.

Li Xiao was stunned, shook his head and smiled.

Fang Bianmian didn't care, let alone sing a song for me, remembering those strange words he said, he had an idea, "Those words you said were lyrics?"

"What?"

"What eyes that are slightly drunk from reading!"

The more Fang Bianmen talked, the more he felt the same, "It seems to be, and it rhymes quite well."

Didn't say yes, Li Xiao just nodded.

He was in a daze.

The purpose of retiring from the circle is to let him concentrate on accumulation and start again, but now, it seems that he has set up a cage for himself.

These few lyrics are written out of emotion, why can't they be sung?

Li Xiao patted Fang Bianmian on the head and said with a smile, "Sing a song for you."

Before waiting for a response, Li Xiao took Fang Bianmian with one hand and the mojito that was still left in the other hand, and walked slowly to the center of the tavern.

It was not as idol drama as imagined, because of the language barrier, Li Xiao made gestures for a long time, and the bar guests were willing to speak the microphone to him when he was about to go on stage.

The bar guest didn't intend to leave, but stood aside and looked at Li Xiao, as if he was going to be kicked off the stage if he didn't sing well.

Li Xiao borrowed an acoustic guitar from the band after gesticulating under Fang Bianmian's watchful eyes.

After borrowing the guitar, Li Xiao plucked the strings twice, and immediately felt that the strings should be changed.

But as soon as an expert makes a move, he will know if there is any. Seeing this scene, people who know a little bit of guitar know that Li Xiao is not here to make a joke. The bar customer who gave up the microphone nodded in satisfaction and retreated into the crowd.

[Please give my lover a Mojito
I like to read her drunken eyes
and my coffee

Not too much sugar

The world is already too sweet because of her]

When singing, Li Xiao kept staring at one direction in the crowd, and the surrounding guests could easily find that he seemed to be singing to his beloved girl.

Because of Li Xiao, Fang Bianmian was used to being stared at by the crowd, and he didn't pay much attention to it. His beautiful eyes flowed around, with a happy smile on his face, and he could only see the people who were singing.

The accompaniment of a song is only a little rough with an acoustic guitar, but Li Xiao's singing level is really not low. Even if he can't understand the language, the surrounding guests can still feel the emotions he conveys.

Fang Bianmian also noticed that there were quite a few girls who were ready to move, no, they were already blatant, and they were biting their lips and winking at Li Xiao.

If it weren't for the naked emotional expression of this song, and Li Xiao's frequent expressions of love for her, she was even sure that these women had already posted it.

There were a few Hua people in the field who recognized Li Xiao and called out his name.

Only the surrounding guests knew that this person was actually a star.

And Li Xiao wiped off the cold sweat in his heart. At some point, the black man who let him take the microphone has returned to the crowd. Fortunately, he seems to be quite satisfied.
After dealing with a few Chinese people, Li Xiao and Fang Bianmian walked out of the small bar arm in arm. The other guests said goodbye to them warmly, and did not pay much attention to them.

There were only a few Chinese, and a few foreign fans who recognized Li Xiao, and were pleasantly surprised that they were the first to hear Li Xiao's new song.

"Huh! It's fun!"

Li Xiao let out a breath easily, the drowsiness caused by drinking had long since disappeared, but he still maintained his upper body state, his mood was very good, and he walked like a child bouncing around.

No, like a prank, Li Xiao squeezed Fang Bianmian's face with both hands, and ran away in an instant.

Fang Bianmian was chasing after him. After being chased for a while, Li Xiao deliberately slowed down, bowed his head obediently to admit his mistake and was pinched back, then poked again, and ran out quickly.

The laughter of the two resounded from time to time in this ancient and enthusiastic city.

"Miss Cai."

Lu Feizhang came to the office after receiving Yu Cai's notice, and greeted him a little nervously.

It has been two days since the script was handed in for review. If you come here today, you should have an answer.

"I've already found someone to look at it, and it has potential for investment." Yu Cai was straightforward.

Just as Lu Feizhang showed surprise, Yu Cai said again: "But everyone thinks that the investment of 8000 million is a bit high."

"." For a moment of silence, Lu Feizhang showed just the right amount of disappointment.

He didn't dare to think about an investment of 8000 million yuan. The most important thing is that Yu Cai will not decide how much to invest in the script by himself, so he will go to a film investor to help him read the script.

And those film investors Lu Feizhang didn't intend to comment, but they also knew that some people's vision was really not good.

There are many examples in the market, a certain movie is not favored, the director sells the property and has to make the movie, and the box office of the movie exploded!

Of course, Lu Feizhang has self-confidence, but he doesn't think that others are not optimistic about his script, because others have no vision.

I just wanted to get more investment for the film, so I raised the investment a little bit, and deliberately described some scenes in the script to cost a little more money, but in fact it will be much lower.

"Did you not give me the real script?"

Yu Cai said with a smile, "I seem to see someone's shadow in one of the characters in your script."

Obviously, Yu Cai couldn't hide it, Lu Feizhang said frankly: "The real script doesn't have those sci-fi elements, after all, it's still a movie about the struggle of youth."

"Do you know that your behavior is no different from fraud?" Yu Cai's eyes suddenly became sharp.

"I, I know."

Lu Feizhang hastily explained, "I originally planned to confess it when you approved the investment. I definitely wouldn't dare to ask for such a high cost."

In fact, he had reported this matter to Li Xiao, but when he said it at this time, it was inevitable that it would be a bit oppressive.

The film department of the company is not complete either, and there are no professional personnel to take charge of it. Originally, Li Xiao should be responsible for reviewing scripts, but he doesn’t care about any other work. With the original intention, he nodded in agreement.

It is Lu Feizhang's skill to be able to fool enough investment. Of course, Li Xiao also knows the final investment amount and will not let him mess around.

"You haven't answered my question yet." Yu Cai changed the subject.

"?" Lu Feizhang was stunned, and was terrified in his heart, why did this woman change her face so quickly.

Yu Cai reminded: "The role of the second male."

"Yes, the prototype of that character is Li Xiao, but this is not the male lead, but the male lead. There are no so-called supporting roles in my movie. Everyone who is working hard is the protagonist."

Lu Feizhang became the patriarch of success studies, but Yu Cai didn't have much interest in listening, "Yes, I like it."

What do you like?
How did you like it?

Do you like Li Xiao?
Lu Feizhang looked confused, and heard: "8000 million is definitely impossible, so let's say 5000 million. If the publicity is not enough, you can consider additional publicity and distribution investment depending on the effect of the film."

"Enough is enough, thank you sister Cai!" Lu Feizhang nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

Yu Cai paused and said: "There is another requirement, the role prototype does not need to be specified behind the scenes of the film. But when you do a road show later, if someone asks you to tell the story behind the scenes, if no one asks, you have to take it with you Talk over there."

"Naturally, but"

Lu Feizhang wondered, but why did you make this request on purpose? Also, does Li Xiao agree?
The script was deliberately not shown to Li Xiao.

Yu Cai gave the answer: "Aren't you afraid that the kid will delay his comeback for several years?"

Don't remind the audience, listening to Li Xiao's songs and watching his movies, the audience may not necessarily be able to realize that he hasn't released anything new for a long time.

"Sister Cai entrusts you with this matter, do it well!"

Being patted on the shoulder, Lu Feizhang suddenly felt that he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

Also thought of some changes in the plot
I hope Li Xiao won't beat me to death!
